Salley, also a small forward for the basketball team, may play both sports on the college level. He is interested in Florida State, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Purdue, Iowa.
Salley will go to school on football scholarship and walk on to hoops team, according to basketball head coach Steve Strand.
"He is a big time football player," Strand said. "But he is also a very good basketball player. The basketball programs are also interested in him and they don't have to worry about a scholarship since he will go to school on a football offer."
